Christmas in the Desert!

We've been having so much fun gearing up for Christmas! We've done lots of fun actives as a family! Check them out below!

Getting our tree! Since Christmas trees don't grow anywhere near the desert so the sticker price was a bit of a shock.


Harvey sure loved the train at the tree lot

ready to take the beauty home

it's the perfect tree

this is Harvey's perch. Anytime someone is doing something in the kitchen he is right here watching, waiting and helping

our house is decorated to the max... apparently we wont be getting anything out of island cabinets

6th Birthday, Thanksgiving, Christmas decorating and more!

It's been a busy and fun month over here! We've celebrated a 6th birthday (a few days late since Trevi was in Belize)! We had our first Thanksgiving (at the lake no less), lots of holiday celebrations at school, decorated our house for Christmas and our first movie theatre experience!

Lets start with my little man and his trains!


A shell Trevi is very proud of bringing home from Belize!

Harvey's travel present: a rain stick!

Sunsets are pretty awesome too!
